Just last week, an article in La Presse informed us that bookstore sales have reached their highest record in recent years. On this day, we invite you to read the testimonies of some members of the team about their favourite Quebecois books over the years.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h3\">\n<h3>Nancy\u2019s choice \u2013 Marie Laberge<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>I\u2019ve devoured quite a few books by Marie Laberge. What an incredible writer! For a while, I even had a sentence from one of her books stuck to my fridge, which said something like this: \u201cThe problem with lucidity is that there is no volume control.\u201d If this excerpt speaks to you and you are not yet familiar with Marie Laberge, I highly recommend diving into her trilogy \u201cLe go\u00fbt du bonheur\u201d. You will love it!<\/p>\n<div class=\"h3\">\n<h3>Antoine\u2019s choice \u2013 \u201cRoman Sans Rien\u201d by Antoine Charbonneau-Demers<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>With a pen that is as powerful and impressive as ever, this new novel by the author is extremely original and leads the reader to reflect on the authenticity and power of writing. Divided into two parts, one autobiographical and one bursting with striking characters, this book confirms that Antoine Charbonneau-Demers is one of the most talented authors of his generation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h3\">\n<h3>Camille\u2019s choice \u2013 \u201cKuessipan\u201d by Naomi Fontaine<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>Naomi Fontaine&#8217;s first novel is a puzzle that the reader must piece together, a fragmented portrait of the lives of the people of the North, a paradox between beauty and misery. It&#8217;s beautiful, from start to finish.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h3\">\n<h3>Val\u00e9rie\u2019s choice \u2013 \u201cRue Duplessis\u201d by Jean-Philippe Pleau<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>I recommend \u201cRue Duplessis\u201d by Jean-Philippe Pleau to anyone who wishes to explore the concept of class defector. The author does it with great sensitivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the occasion of Quebec Book Day, the Exponentiel team was delighted to see that the book industry is doing very well in Quebec.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":3943,"template":"","categories":[99,93],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4068","nouvelles","type-nouvelles","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-column","category-life-at-exponentiel"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
